The motivation for this is that Perl is moving towards not having current directory ./ in @INC by default. This is causing mysql-test-run.pl to fail in latest Debian Unstable: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2016/08/msg00013.html However, we have `use "lib"`, there is no need for current directory in @INC, except for a gross hack. In mtr_cases.pm, there is a `require "mtr_misc.pl"`, which hides mtr_misc.pl away in mtr_cases namespace. And things only work because mysql-test-run.pl loads it with a different name, `require "lib/mtr_misc.pl"`! (Perl will `require` only once for each unique filename). Fix this by only using `require` in main program, and referencing functions with :: scope from other namespaces. For multi-use in different namespaces, proper `use` modules should be used.

MariaDB: drop-in replacement for MySQL
MariaDB is designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.
MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.
MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariadB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation, and by many people in the community.
MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.
A description of the MariaDB project and a manual can be found at: http://mariadb.org/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-features/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-versus-mysql-features/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-versus-mysql-compatibility/
As MariaDB is a full replacement of MySQL, the MySQL manual at http://dev.mysql.com/doc is generally applicable.
